SIERRA VISTA — Independence Day is here, and with Sierra Vista’s celebration comes a list of activities at Veterans Memorial Park, followed by a spectacular fireworks display at Domingo Paiz and Stone fields. Festivities started Wednesday evening and resumed bright and early Thursday morning with a lineup of food vendors, activities, demonstrations and entertainment at Veterans Memorial Park. Wednesday afternoon found Rotarians in the park’s bandshell area setting up tables and organizing booths for food, beer, wine and beverage sales.
“Our Rotary Club was the first Rotary in Sierra Vista, founded on June 7, 1960,” said Puett, one of the club’s past presidents. “Three other Rotary Clubs spun off ours and they assist us with this event.” The other three are Sierra Vista West, Sierra Vista South and Sierra Vista Sunrise.
